Discussion only short story

[Dreamerman77]

Lot of ideas cruising around in my head.

The latest is to write a story that is solely composed of discussion. Anybody ever write something like this? I'd be happy to read if you have examples.

Could be a challenge also?

Good lines and discussion in a story make it alive and they are also fun to listen.

By discussion I mean dialogue. Pardon my English.

I did a story in Transcripts that is nearly entirely dialogue. It's not terribly well read.

Found it. Thanks for the tip, I'll add it to my Read Later list.

I was thinking that in addition to dialogue tags and descriptions of emotions or expressions could be used.

Dialog is my Swiss army knife, but dialog with explicit sex descriptions? I'll have to think about that.

I have a couple of 750-word shorts that are dialog only, What Develops is a dialog between two characters, and Suburban Venus Lingerie is a monologue by a single character!

I just put a short one in @StillStunned's Writing Exercise thread. Here.

It is difficult.

I'm working on a story (hopefully for Nude Day) that involves a sort-of three-way between the FMC, MMC, and another female listening over the phone. The long-distance participant demanded verbal descriptions of the action.

It took a lot of writing and rewriting.

Having sex and talking coherently at the same time is a challenge. Writing it would be worse.

One (non-erotic) story I enjoyed that used dialogue quite effectively to reveal character was Play Date by Salish.

I have a WIP that's purely dialogue, but only one person's side of it.

The sex will undoubtedly be less specific in details, but could leave more room for the reader's imagination. Good or bad? probably depends on the reader.

Thank you for the tip.

I've done a couple of 750 word comedy stories that are only dialogue. They're based on a British comedy TV show, so not to everyone's taste.

One of my earliest stories here was mostly dialogue: Oral Intercourse

Penny, how am I going to fulfill my role as your biggest cheerleader if you keep beating me to it!?

Read Penny's stories people, they are amazing! Smut for everyone, almost all tastes catered for!

This one is great too. Shout outs also to @Areala-chan for "Four little words" and, one of my personal all time favourites, @bi_cathy "I'd go gay for you". Both are basically all dialogue between multiple participants.

My story, I have seen love, is essentially all dialogue, with some description of the feelings of the narrator as they eavesdrop on a conversation that should probably have been private.
